For my Capstone project, I am planning on designing a community center to provide opportunities for active living and recreation in a safe, inclusive environment especially for people of color and those who recently moved to a new country and feel that they are an outsider in this society. This can happen by creating a positive atmosphere, by creating public and private spaces that everyone feels welcomed in. Gathering spaces and lounge area is one of the main focuses in the project, where these spaces can create a safe and provide for people many opportunities to come together and engage with the community. Having more private relaxing spaces is also as Antonio important as father gathering areas, where it gives people the opportunity to feel Immigrant they are in their comfort zone. Spaces like that can be spa, yoga room, gym, 45 years old conference room, and private dining and lounging area.

Beacon Hill Art Gallery Project Beacon Hill neighborhood is layered with different zoning spaces, residential and commercial. I choose the design qualifier for this project to be “layering” because the concept of layering is a key ingredient to make the space stand out from the others. A space that is developed by layering individual design elements together to form a cohesive look, the look can be achieved by layering, materials, ceiling elements, lighting, artworks, etc. As well as layering programs in the space. The city is rich with different businesses and cultural spaces that are layered and interchanged to create the diversity that is now the story of the people who live in the neighborhood.

SITE ANALYSIS

Layering Creating community with Art... Creates the impression of action in a work..

Based on the site analysis study I have done about Beacon Hill neighborhood, I found that the neighborhood needs more spaces that support local artists, space for artist to do their work and showcase their work. An Art Gallery/Art Studio is the space that will support local artist in the area. The neighborhood is layered with different zoning spaces that can give the project a rich mix of residential and commercial visitors. Based on the analysis I found that the space needs more greenery, so with the design concept layering, I will be layering the spaces with more vegetation.

DESIGN CONCEPT: Golden Ratio

Golden Ratio is commonly found in nature it is mainly used to bring harmony and structure to your design. Bringing harmony to the design through line & shape. Through lines that follow or repeat each other, line that contrast with each other, and transitional lines that soften or modify others. In order to produce harmony of line & shapes in the project, there should be always an effect of organization.

Coffeehouse/Social Justice Hub Bellevue College is a public college in Bellevue, Washington. Bellevue College is the largest of the 34 institutions that make up the Washington Community and Technical Colleges system and the thirdlargest institution of higher education overall in the state. We are designing a Coffee Hub located in parking 7 at Bellevue College by putting together a list of wants and must-haves in for the program based on the user needs and the design qualifier. My goal is to create a space that can help create community. A space that can bring people together to socialize and interact. Bellevue College is a space that welcome everybody, includes all communities, a mixture of social, cultural and economic connections between religious, class and ethnic groups, between affluence and poverty and between generations as well.

After working locked togather or at my mind map, I found out that all of the elements I toconnected intersect and covered are and I see them interlocked to create the biginterconnect. picture. The idea of interlock can be an element that connect to another to create one bigger element. Looking at the Coffee-House and Social Justice Hub that is located at the Bellevue College campus, this can be described as a space interlock inside another. The concept of interlocked can be found in primary elements like walls, and can be applied in secondary elements like shelves, materials use and furniture. It can also be used in the idea of interlocking nature and the building.

Designing a public space like a coffee hub, in a high traffic area like a college campus, it’s very important to clearly defin paths of travel, have logic layout that is easy to understand and people feel safe in, and use a good contrast to make it easier for everyone to see clearly. I have reached this goal by: Avoiding tights hallway Use clear signage Use good contrast (mainly with wood)
